We love this place. They have mild salsa and hot and green. The staff are wonderful. We love the the food not like a chain.

I love this place, especially the outside area. I’ve never been unhappy with the food, the margaritas are amazing and the staff are very fun and kind!

We (my brother and I) were going to Golden Coral but there was a long line so we left. We drove around and found this restaurant, Por Favor. Man, we were ecstatic when we took our first bite... it was a mouth full of goodness . The house chips came warm and fast. We even asked for seconds, and the nice waitress brought it over in record time. As for the 2 entrée plates, OMG, love the food. We made tacos and nacho (without the cheese) out of the carnitas plate. The restaurant decor is very pleasing. And if it wasn't fie the rain, we would have loved the patio seats. Give the restaurant a try, you won't be disappointed.

Nice comfy and very big place. Food is just ok, definitely not the best or most authentic Mexican food.

I have been coming here to eat for over 20 years and it was one of my all-time go-to, favorite places to eat and have a cocktail , between the atmosphere, the food and the service. Even the chips that came before dinner were fresh and delicious. I understand the price increases that have happened throughout the economy, but this place has really jacked the prices while also skimping a bit on portions. Even the chips were cool and slightly stale. I wish I could cook my own food and bring it here to eat in the nice environment while enjoying a tasty margarita and talk to the friendly staff, because the food coming out of their kitchen has become the weak point. Maybe the good cooks quit or something? Anyway, we do not plan on coming back here to eat.

I Came Here With My Friend Before The Guess Who Show @ The Magnolia. We Sat Down & The Waiter Brought Us Some Chips With Some Tasteless Salsa With No Bite. Yeah The Waiter Was A Little Pushy About Ordering After We Told Him We Weren't Ready To Order. I Did Have The Carne Asada Plate & It Was Good. I Asked For Some Real Salsa And It Took About 15 Mins To Get. I Asked For Some More Tortillas And It Took 10 Mins. Yeah Asked For The Check And We Had To Wait Another 15 Mins. I Actually Liked Their LA Mesa Location Much Better.

Went to this restaurant today and it will be the last. The food was terrible! I had Pollo Asado Burrito and it was horrible. ( That's probably how the prison food tastes like) their chips were stale. And to top it all, there was hair on it! We paid $90 before tips for a crappie food. I will never recommend this restaurant.

I would like to say that it was great but I can’t. Reasonable prices nowadays. Maybe it’s because I am accustomed to Tex-Mex but this wasn’t the best. However please don’t let my review prevent you from trying this place out. Friendly staff and great atmosphere.

It was fine. Y’all Californians live to think your Mexican food is the be all end all when it’s actually not very good at all. Which is why I think so many of you keep moving to Texas.

I really enjoy my visits to TJ's, because the variety of the food is fun to explore, the employees are very friendly, and the overall atmosphere is great..

Food is good but the bowl of Menudo is very small for the price. I wish they served a bigger bowl because it's delicious.

Terrible place and management. I saw the manager yelling at an employee because a large party was asking a server questions during there order and the manager said she took to long. The server was doing their job and got In trouble for that?Food was cold, drinks were weak, and the bathrooms were disgusting. Wouldn’t spend a dime here and the manager needs to get booted.

I was in a group of 8 women and Roberto was our server. We played games after we had dinner in the outdoor area with heaters and beautiful lights. The food was great. The atmosphere was wonderful and Roberto was a very good photographer for our group! LOL We are going back for more dinner and game nights! ?
